Thread: Commercial Lawn Care Contract

When making your commercial lawn care contract what does everbody state as for how long the contract will last? April 1st to November 1st? I am from Ohio so we usually mow from April 1st to early to mid November.

Another thing I was also wondering when bidding on a commercial property. This property wants the hedges trimmed whenever needed and the basic mow, trim, edge, blow done every week. In my price quote should I put one price for everything or break it down into 2 categories: such as $60 a cut and $10 every time the hedges need trimmed?

Personally, I would lump everything into one price. In other words...say you estimate $600 to keep all shrubs trimmed all year long. Caution...check into when shrubs should/can be trimmed. You don't want to be trimming those azaleas or forsythia before they bloom!

Anyway, assuming a 30 week season I would add $20/wk to the lawn price.
